Reporting by Eurex Clearing according to Article 9 EMIR – Member Information for EMIR REFIT

Eurex Clearing Circular 019/24 Reporting by Eurex Clearing according to Article 9 EMIR – Member Information for EMIR REFIT

1. Introduction

According to Article 9 EMIR (European Market Infrastructure Regulation), both Eurex Clearing AG (Eurex Clearing) and its Clearing Members are obliged to report transactions and positions in exchange-traded and OTC derivatives contracts. In addition, collateral and valuation reports must be submitted.

Since both counterparties of a derivatives trade must report and since common data must be identical, it is important that the CCP and its Clearing Members use the same methodology to populate common data fields.

With EMIR REFIT as of 29 April 2024, there will be major changes to the existing EMIR reporting. Please find attached to this circular the Preliminary Version of Eurex Clearing’s Member Information for EMIR REFIT. The document outlines the reporting information considering the changed requirements coming with EMIR REFIT. It reflects Eurex Clearing’s understanding of the changed rules.

This is the third circular in the context of EMIR REFIT to give market participants a certain guidance of how Eurex Clearing will implement the new reporting requirements. While reasonable care has been taken in the preparation of this document to provide details that are accurate and not misleading at the time of publication, Eurex Clearing shall not be responsible or liable for any third party’s use of any information contained herein under any circumstances or for any errors or omissions contained in this publication.

Production start: 29 April 2024
